concludes. Dunedin plays on Wednesday morning

The knockout blow might have finally been delivered to their NRL season but Parramatta have vowed to go out swinging in 2016.But first they will need to pick themselves off the canvas - again.There seemed to be little fight left in the Eels after their slim finals hopes were officially killed off by Saturdays 34-14 loss to Gold Coast.Eels players acknowledged their fate by dropping their heads after the six-tries-to-three loss at cbus Super Stadium.However, Parramatta coach Brad Arthur said there was still plenty to gain from their nightmare season.Our season may be over but we have standards and expectations - that is all we can judge ourselves on, he said.We have to ask ourselves at the end of the year did we maintain those standards or take the easy option?.The Eels had held onto hope that wins in their remaining seven matches would keep them in the finals mix.They had to cling to something.In a year lurching from controversy to controversy for Parramatta, Eels fans would still have been disheartened by the events of the past week.Wayward five-eighth Corey Norman watched from the Gold Coast sidelines after being suspended for eight weeks and fined $20,000 for a string of off-field incidents, including a conviction for drug possession.Parramatta were also taken over by a NSW government-appointed administrator on Tuesday in the wake of their salary-cap scandals which resulted in a $1 million fine and the loss of 12 competition points.Their luck didnt change on Saturday.Captain Beau Scott (ankle) was cut before the match while hooker Isaac De Gois (suspected knee) limped off in the 64th minute as Parramatta slid to third last on 12 points.Weve got probably three quarters of the salary cap sitting on the sidelines, Arthur said of their long list of unavailable players including playmaker Kieran Foran.We will just add them (De Gois, Scott) to the list.We will find some (back-up).If anything, I would rather them (injuries) this year than next year.Eels stand-in skipper Tim Mannah said it was pretty easy to ignore their off-field dramas.This is a resilient, tough group, he said.The attitude we have makes it a lot easier to deal with situations that look pretty messy from the outside.I think we will be better for it once we come through it.

When his night was over, two outs later in the seventh, Rogers left to a standing ovation, a grin on his face. The reliever-turned-starter has in himself the most important tool for any professional athlete. “Im confident,” said Rogers. “I think that thats the key. The confidence that Gibby and Pete give to me right now is unbelievable. They told me right away, be confident on the mound. I didnt have it in Colorado, Im not going to lie to you, and Ive got a real, unbelievable confidence right now that I can throw any pitch in any count that I want.” Rogers followed up his seven-inning, 93-pitch performance in Thursdays 6-1 win over Texas with 6 2/3 innings of two earned run baseball. He worked ahead and relied on his recently developed two-seam sinking fastball. Of Rogers 20 recorded outs, 14 were either strikeouts or groundouts. “Hes a four-pitch guy now,” said manager John Gibbons. “Coming out of the bullpen hes basically a two-pitch guy but hes added that two-seam fastball, he throws a little curveball now and then to go along with his slider and he actually throws some changeups. “I see much better command than coming out of the bullpen,” Gibbons continued. “The mentality sometimes there is you go in one or two innings and air it out, let it fly. Now hes pitching more. I tell you what: hes got a dynamite arm.” Rogers has a 1.71 ERA over four starts (four earned runs in 21 innings). Understandably, there is a question about whether Rogers arm will hold up given his off-season training program was geared toward middle to late relief. The answer wont be known until later in the season. In the meantime, Rogers will enjoy the ride.dddddddddddd He wont stress. “Im not that kind of pitcher, like I come into the stadium the day before I pitch and try to look for the scouting report,” said Rogers. “I know Ive got ability and I know if theyre going to hit, theyre going to hit my pitches. Jose Reyes Update Jose Reyes started and played nine innings at designated hitter for class-A Dunedin, his second rehab outing. Reyes went 1-5 with a single in Dunedins 9-4, 11-inning win over the Yankees affiliate in Tampa. The win clinched the first half division crown for the Blue Jays, assuring the club playoff games when the regular season concludes. Dunedin plays on Wednesday morning at 11:00. Reyes was scheduled to be back at shortstop. Morrow Suffers Setback As Reyes continues to make progress toward an impending return to the Blue Jays, the club got bad news on starter Brandon Morrow. “The forearms still bothering him,” said Gibbons. “Theyre backing him off that rehab, get him re-examined and see where hes at. Same spot, forearm, tenderness.” Morrow started Monday nights game for Single-A Dunedin. He allowed three runs on five hits, including a home run, in two innings. After the game he reported a recurrence of pain in his forearm. In the meantime, hell be shut down from all throwing. Luis Perez Suffers Setback Left-handed reliever Luis Perez, who had Tommy John elbow ligament replacement surgery last July 17, has suffered a setback in his rehabilitation. Perez, 28, had progressed to Single-A action. He appeared in one game for Dunedin on June 10, pitching two scoreless innings. Perez had a 3.43 ERA in 42 innings, 35 relief appearances, for the Blue Jays in the first half of the 2012 season. The Blue Jays dont believe the setback is serious. ' ' '
